Got a date for section!!!!

Am feeling VERY excited!!!! Had scan & consultant today,section date is 10th november,babies are both 4lb 9oz! Am gobsmacked,didnt expect them to weigh that much!

Consultant said he doesnt actually think il get to my section date,omfg!!! Both babies are lying transverse still,but that means nothing really as im having a section anyway(& am secretly glad theyre transverse cos then i wont be able to have a natural birth-defo dont want one now!),& theyve not got a lot of room to move according to sonographer,so i doubt theyll turn now.

Love Sam

Very proud Mummy to Holly born Jan 2009 and twins Emily and Harry born Jan 2011

Anne thats brilliant weights considering yours are id twins,sharing food supply etc,& you had them at 33 weeks,im 33 weeks on monday so mine must be growing around the same rate as yours did.

Sami,yeah my bags have been packed since 27 weeks lol! & if i go into labour early,yeah i will have an emergency section,but its not as bad as it actually sounds,it just means its unplanned-the procedure is the same,they prep you for a sction under local anaesthetic,& out they come!

How exciting!! Don't want to tempt fate, but I had my c section booked, for 12 days later, and then 2 days after I went into labour and had them by emergency c section, good job you have your bags packed lol x

The weights are fab for 33 weeks, at least you have a date to work towards now.

Even though mine was an emergency c section, and a bit rushed, it was still as amazing as the c section I had with connie-may.

Yay congrats on getting your date. They are great weights for 33 weeks. Mine weighed 4lb 15 and 4lb 7 at 32 weeks and went on to be 6lb 3 and 5lb 12 when they were born at 36 weeks so yours look like they are going to be great sizes even if they make an early appearance

Well id like to make it to 36 weeks for the sake of the babies,but anytime after that is fine with me! I know thois sounds bad,but il be 36+4 if i make it to my next scan & i hope i dont,cos i hated todays scan! I felt really sick,& when the sonographer ran the scanner over my tummy i could actually feel the shapes & parts of the babies on the scanner,i didnt like it,it felt really weird & horrible! Dont want another scan lol

Yay! Brilliant Angie. So excited for you! My cousin had boy/girl twins on Wednesday night at 33 weeks, they were 5lb & 4lb 11, brill weights for 33 weeks! They told me at my scan 2 days before my section that my girls would be over 6lbs & they were 5lb2 & 4lb14 lol, so a little off! I hated the scans at the end too, they were so uncomfortable! Bet you can't wait now!!
